Gm Timekeepers! ⏳🩸
If you thought crypto couldn’t bleed harder, think again. We just entered what some are calling Black Monday 2.0, and the charts look like murder scenes.
📉 From Bitcoin tanking under $75K to Ethereum whales getting nuked for nine figures, it’s full-on financial carnage. Meanwhile, someone just staked SOL for 3,000 years, AUD blinked before BTC did, and Tether is teasing yet another stablecoin.
Oh, and Cramer summoned the ghost of 1987. Yeah… It’s that kind of day. 👻📊 Buckle in. This ride has no brakes.
Let’s go!
1️⃣ Bitcoin Below $75K, Ethereum Below $1.6K
2️⃣ ETH Whale Liquidated for $106M on Sky Protocol
3️⃣ AUD rebounds slightly while BTC keeps dropping
4️⃣ 3,000-Year SOL Stake – One trader locks up SOL till year 5138
5️⃣ Tether Hints at a new U.S. stablecoin
🧨 Black Monday 2.0? Bitcoin Tanks Below $78K, Ethereum Crashes Under $1.6K as Markets Brace for Impact
Markets are bleeding red as whispers of a new “Black Monday” echo across Wall Street and Crypto Twitter. 📉
Bitcoin has plunged below $78,000, and Ethereum has shattered through the $1,600 floor — its lowest level in 545 days.
ETH maxis are not able to cope with the ‘Buy the dip’ - since dip keeps on dipping
The sentiment is PURE FEAR.
And to spice things up, Jim Cramer invoked the ghost of 1987’s Black Monday, where stocks nosedived 23% in a single day. 🕳️
Weak technicals, bearish on-chain flows, and macro uncertainty are dragging everything down — stocks, crypto, and hopes alike. It’s not just crypto winter — it’s financial frostbite out there. ❄️
It might be time to reassess your risk, double-check your stop-losses, and keep your eyes on the charts. History doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme — and this verse might be brutal. 📊
🩸 ETH Whale Loses $106M on Sky Protocol as Ethereum Crashes — DeFi Gets Dragged Into the Bloodbath
The crypto carnage just claimed a massive victim — an Ethereum whale got liquidated for a jaw-dropping $106 million on Sky (formerly Maker), triggering alarm bells across DeFi. 📉
67,570 ETH — poof, gone. The whale’s collateralized debt position got wiped out as ETH nosedived 14.5%, plunging below $1,550.
With the collateral ratio slipping to 144% — below Sky’s 150% minimum — liquidation was swift and brutal. And this wasn’t a one-off: another whale holding $91M in WETH is teetering on the edge. 🫣
This is more than a liquidation — it’s a DeFi stress test. The drop has pushed ETH to bear market lows not seen since the ghost of FTX haunted us in 2023.
With over 320,000 traders liquidated and $1B lost in the past 24 hours, it’s clear: if you’re over-leveraged, you’re not just playing with fire — you’re already burning. 🔥💀
Time to check your collateral ratios, rebalance your vaults, and maybe sit out the madness unless you enjoy watching your portfolio evaporate. DeFi isn't dead — but it's definitely bleeding. 🩸📉
📉 Bitcoin Sinks Below $75K 💥 But Aussie Dollar Blinks First, Hinting the Bloodbath Might Be Nearing Bottom
Bitcoin's doing its best rollercoaster impersonation, dropping below $75K 🎢💸
Meanwhile, the Aussie dollar (AUD) just pulled a plot twist — recovering nearly 100 pips like it’s trying to save the whole market by itself 🇦🇺🦘💪
Remember that double-top pattern from January? Yeah, BTC just fulfilled that prophecy like it read CoinDesk’s TA playbook 🔮
Dow futures: -900 points 📉
AUD/USD pair dipped to 0.5930 and then bounced to 0.6011 — small win, but we’ll take it 🙌
AUD is basically China's emotional support currency… so if it’s bouncing, maybe the bleeding has a band-aid 😅
Could this bounce in AUD mean the tariff tantrum is calming down? Maybe.
Could this mean that BTC won’t crash into the crypto abyss? Possibly.
Is it safe to go bottom fishing now?
Only if your idea of fun is juggling chainsaws underwater 🐟
Don’t get FOMO just ‘cause AUD blinked first 👀
📉 BTC might find support between $70K–$75K, but “support” lately is just a fancy word for “next stop on the dip express.”
☠️ Don’t be that guy who says, “It can’t go lower,” then buys the top of the bottom.
Maybe wait for the knife to hit the floor before catching it? 🗡️🤲
Want this turned into a thread or IG reel with dramatic violin music? I gotchu 🎻📱
🌀 SOL Trader Stakes for 3,000 Years! BRB, Time Traveling to Cash Out 📉
📈 Some crypto trader just staked $0.05 of SOL… for 3,000 years 😵💫⛓️See you in year 5138, folks
Blockchain sleuths at Arkham say this time capsule move happened in 2023.
CIO of Kronos: “It’s not a joke; it’s conviction.”
Internet: “It’s giving meme energy.” 🤡🧠
Currently, SOL is at $102. Bitwise thinks it could hit $6K by 2030.
So yeah, 3,000 years might buy you a galactic yacht 🚀🛥️
Imagine the compounding power…
A 3% annual yield = $486 undecillion (that’s 36 zeroes, baby) 💰🤯
And Solana pays rewards every few days, so it’s basically stacking up like Thanos collecting Infinity Stones 💎📈
Is it generational wealth planning? Or just a cosmic-level troll?
Either way, someone just pulled the most dramatic “HODL” move in history.
Up next: staking for 10,000 years because YOLO 🧓🪙💤
But will your generational grandchildren (if u choose to have any and all of them choose to have any) even know about you 3000 years later?
🇺🇸 Tether Teases U.S. Stablecoin — Because One More Won’t Hurt, Right?
Tether — yes, that Tether — is thinking about launching a U.S.-based stablecoin. Because what the world really needs is... another stablecoin. 🇺🇸💵
Apparently, they're targeting institutional clients (aka the big fish 🐳), hoping to cash in on a potentially favorable regulatory environment in the U.S.
Which, let’s be honest, is a bit like saying you’ll plan your wedding based on maybe good weather three years from now. ☁️⛅️
CEO Paolo Ardoino says they’re waiting on the final version of the stablecoin bill in Congress before committing.
Translation: “We’re watching the soap opera play out on Capitol Hill before dropping our new product.” 🎭📜
So, should institutions start getting excited? Maybe.
But until Tether stops considering and starts doing, don’t hold your USDT. Just hold your breath. 😮💨📉
…And Time!
That’s all for today’s 13th Hour, where the only thing dropping faster than prices is trader morale.
😵💫 Whether you're HODLing, staking till 5138, or just watching the red candles like horror movie jump scares—remember: volatility is the vibe, and survival is the goal.
Stay safe, stay solvent, and don’t try catching knives barefoot. We’ll see you tomorrow, assuming the market doesn’t time-travel back to 1929. ⏳📉🩸
